Men talk and think a lot about sex while women desire it more often. We explore the reasons... \'Men think, while women desire.\' Gone are the days when \'demanding sex\' was considered exclusively a man\'s forte. Today women demand sex greater than men. And they have no qualms about getting vocal about it. \"I read these funny E-mail forwards that stress on men begging for sex and women denying it. It sounds so funny to me. It\'s totally the opposite in my case. While men can have a good laugh over it believing that this notion exists, I literally have to seduce my husband to get him hooked on to the act,\" quips production assistant Megha Mehra. And she is not alone. Many girls/women had a similar story. We spoke to women from different backgrounds to figure out what is making them addicted to sex. It\'s physically pleasurable Amongst all the other reasons to remain glued to sex, this is the most prominent one. Good sex satisfies your physical urge, which is very normal for anyone to experience. Psychologist Seema Naina opines, \"Sex is the most basic need of any person. And I am increasingly getting cases where women are complaining that men are unable to satisfy their physical needs.\" Creates positive feelings about oneself Ideally, great sex means you are enjoying the sexual act and participating equally. It makes you feel good about yourself, thus adding to your self esteem. Shares housewife Neelam Nehra, \"When my husband comes back from a whole day at work and we have our sack session, it increases my self esteem. The very feeling that I am able to satisfy him is a great pleasure. And since I never want to go out of shape to look unappealing to my husband (and other men), it even acts as a motivation to work out and feel desirable.\" Wondering why? \"Sex has healing powers. It generates positive emotions and makes one feel more confident. When a woman sees her man passionate in the act, admiring her body and moves, it infuses a lot of good feelings within her,\" opines psychologist Sunaina Bajaj. Brings them closer to their man Physical intimacy releases hormone Oxytocin, which is also known as the love hormone. Agrees relationship expert Vandana Mitra, \"I have always maintained that couples should never take sex casually. It\'s a very important ingredient for any relationship to sustain. It helps couples to nurture the relationship and strengthen the bond.\" So whoever said having more sex with your partner means lesser cases of infidelity, made sense. Content developer Prachi Sinha states, \"I feel a major connect with my boyfriend after we make love. I just feel like being close to him. My faith in him and our relationship grows stronger.\" Prachi\'s boyfriend agrees, \"When she told me about the 7 days a week sex, I initially could not stop laughing. I mean, this is not the only thing we have to do. But honestly it has got us closer. I just can\'t take my eyes off her even when we are moving in a crowd.\" Negates unwanted emotions/ Stress-reliever Sex is not just a physical sensation but it\'s comforting and relaxing. Call centre executive Neetu Sharma shares her experience, \"Whenever I have a bad day at work, sex really helps me unwind. It totally takes the stress out of my mind and makes me feel relaxed and rejuvenated.\" Psychologist Reena Kapur explains why. \"Sex involves a lot of deep breathing and touching and the hormones that are released during the act calm you down.\" Great form of exercise Thirty minutes of sex burns more than 85 calories. We have read it almost everywhere that sex helps in burning calories. Confirms fitness consultant Stuti Batra, \"While I do not suggest giving up work outs, doubling up the session makes you drop more weight.\" While this is the most deadly mix, many girls are seriously taking to it. \"It may sound a little funny, but while making love I prefer to play the dominant role. It helps me burn greater calories, leaving my guy in ecstasy,\" says Payal Verma. Invokes passion \"Sometimes I feel like a pervert, because I find myself always thinking about my boyfriend, and what we did the night before. It gives me a kick and makes me crave for our next sack session. He thinks I am crazy, but it really happens to me,\" shares call centre executive Richa Sharma. \"It is completely normal to fantasise about sex. But I have heard it can freak a guy out- we men are still adapting to the concept of women demanding sex more than us. But we love that passion,\" admits psychologist Prateek.
